, number two the economy, number three the economy. so you add that all up. i'm getting like 45 minutes on the economy. now, it's a big subject. but i do think that there is a chance there to go in depth. but a lot of that depends on these two candidates. are they willing to go in depth? are they willing to engage with each other about specifics? are they willing to kind of reveal their specifics? in some ways it's up to them. but certainly the time is there. >> how can they not go in depth? they can't stand there and not say anything to fill the remaining 13, 12, 10 minutes. >> you'd be surprised how well politicians can fill time saying very little. but i would think the opportunity is there and the pressure is there particularly on mitt romney, but also on the president. there's a lot of pressure to say, okay, so how do you create jobs? we know you both want to create jobs. we know you both don't think the other is doing it the right way. what specifically are you going to do? how specifically will you bring down the deficit? there'

it's no day to talk down the economy to score political points. but shadowing the president in virginia, mitt romney waited nine minutes deep into his scintillating stump speech before even mentioning the big news of the day, delivering it like a speech at a funeral. >> there were fewer new jobs created this month than last month, and the unemployment rate, as you know, to this year has come down very, very slowly. of course, even those that have jobs are having tough times. >> okay. but give mr. romney credit because he actually admits the unemployment rate did come down. unlike prominent conservative jack welch who tweeted this morning, unbelievable jobs numbers. these chicago guys will do anything. can't debate, so change numbers. okay. tuesday he was a ruthless race baiter. yesterday he was a feckless delivery boy. today he's don corleone, and there's more where that came from. congressman west, take it away. >> you are alleging specifically that the president is engaging in a cover-up of the data. you are saying that the administration is act
